We love the Katamari website

Namco has launched a bizarre new website for the forthcoming collect-'em-up, We Love Katamari. If you're at work you may want to turn the sound down a bit. Here's what Namco themselves have to say about it all:



"The official "We Love Katamari" Web site will give fans a sneak peek at the upcoming game by offering new screens, a trailer and updated information. Visitors can download wallpapers (including a selection of U.S. exclusives) as well as a desktop buddy – the loveable, pint-sized Prince – who will roll a katamari around a computer screen. As the game's launch approaches, the site will offer special items for the Prince to wear and guest desktop buddy skins of the Prince's cousins.





"Fans will be able to submit pictures of their favorite katamari-themed creations – including costumes, artwork, etc. – for all site visitors to see and enjoy. On a regular basis, the images will be judged by the franchise's creator, Keita Takahashi, and prizes will be awarded to these selected fans. The King of All Cosmos himself will even provide commentary on some of the submissions – but fans beware: even though his words are filled with love, he can be a demanding monarch!"
